This study of residential rehabilitative shelters for victims of trafficking is based on a review of the literature addressing residential shelters, protection, and rehabilitation for victims of human trafficking; a review of U.S. Government funded shelter activities from 2001Â2005; and interviews with individuals engaged in anti-trafficking work including government officials, scholars, and representatives of non-governmental and international organizations. It addresses the major types of residential shelters, the constraints that affect shelter operations, and a series of issues and challenges to effective shelter care, and includes examples of good practices and recommendations. The study was carried out in 2006 by USAID’s Office of Women in Development in response to the Trafficking Victims Protection Re-authorization Act, 2005.
